Discover the fun of finding fossils and exploring caves while earning two Patches! The Fossil Fun Patch engages Brownies in learning about earth’s history of life through fossils. Brownies learn how to safely hunt for and collect fossils; finding one of their own to add to their collection. Dig into the study of geology while performing simple rock identification tests and do a fun map activity to learn about topographic maps to complete the requirements for the Rocks Rock Patch. This event includes a presentation about cave conservation, cave animals, and cavern formation. The highlight of your trip will be touring TWO beautiful crystal caverns. Included are workshops to fulfill badge/patch requirements, indoor “slumber party” style lodging, evening snack, and a lunch-time meal.
